Presenting a broad and inclusive array of laboratory investigations, each one self-contained, this manual may be used with any textbook in the field. Building a sound foundation with basic cytological investigations (mitosis, meiosis) and labs on Mendelian genetics and probability, the tenth edition of Genetics Laboratory Investigations goes on to offer more sophisticated investigations in polygenic, population, molecular, and microbial genetics.
